Hagedorn Little Village School

When I first went through the hiring process, I thought about how lucky I was that the management I was dealing with were so sweet and kind. Sadly, not everyone is as friendly as you'd think they should be in a school.

One review mentioned the cliqueyness and the drama that goes on between the adults, and it's true. A lot of a gossip and back talking. Be careful with who you befriend and what information you share. 

If all the teachers was more understanding, this job would be a breeze, because without the proper support, training, and compassion it takes to ease a new person into a position, learning the ins and outs of the job and dealing with the children and their needs will make you feel horrible, especially knowing the low pay you're getting paid at the end of the day.

This job, in any school, is not for the weak of heart. You must be confident and not afraid to stand your ground and speak your mind

This is the worst experience I’ve ever had at a place of employment. I have a Masters degree in psychology and took this job temporarily until I found something else and was treated horribly because I did not have a degree in teaching.  I was constantly belittled as a teaching assistant. The principal was more concerned with my leggings than the child abuse allegations that were going on in the news. The schools priorities are backwards.  I also witnessed a teacher antagonizing a special needs child that would not stop screaming.  this school is nothing but nepotism and politics do not send your kids here and do not work here.

Working with children who have multiple disabilities is both challenging and rewarding. To work with such a caring staff makes the job even more enjoyable. The hardest part is managing difficult behaviors but the smile on their faces make up for it. Throughout the day, we supervise and assist these children as they go about their school day and develop academic and self-help skills. What is most rewarding is when you see a child learn a skill that you have taught them, something they are truely proud of.

I work as a SEIT for this school/agency. The people who work in the offices are very knowledgeable and helpful, as this company and the people who work there have been around for a long time. Since you are an individual contributor, the downfall is that you don't get to make personal connections to other co-workers, but there is a lot of gratification in knowing you are helping families and their children. 

The pay is better than most other agencies, and it's nice that they get cases close to where I live. 

I loved working here and I was very sad when I decided to leave, but unfortunately there was no room for growth in the company. Most of the teachers and TA's were making well below a livable wage even though the work was challenging. Most of the supervisors were friendly to their staff and would assist in the classrooms as needed. This could be a career job had they offered higher wages and better benefits.

Its turly amazing place to work with special children. It really help me to understand lot about these children. The pay is very very low for amount to work teachers, assistant and aides does. All the teacher are very helpful. So many rule and restrictions on employees. Sometimes its feel like they are just making money off these children. Their health benefits are really really good. Its so much fun to be with children around.

Typically I would come in at 8 am help set up the classroom for group work, organize and prepare childrens work space. While working there I learned ABA training and handling children with different disabilities such as autism. Co-workers were friendly. Hardest part of the job was watching the kids struggle everyday and the most enjoyable part was knowing I was making a difference

I went into Hagedorn in the morning and was assigned a classroom(s) to work in during that day. I helped work with the teachers and assistant teachers to facilitate learning in the classroom with the children. I only worked part-time so I am not sure about working there full-time.

I am a college student and was looking for a place to work over the summer. I had such an amazing experience and have been back for the past 2 summers. I plan on going back this summer, it is such a fufilling job. To meet, bond, and learn with not only the students, but the staff and faculty also. Everyone is so kind and welcoming and is always willing to help you with whatever you need. 

Summer Job- worked 5 days a week, part time. Programs run very smoothly. Great learning environment to work in both for Teachers and Students. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with the colleagues that I worked with. The hardest part of the job was dealing with the severity of the students disabilities.
